[PMID: 33350003 DOI: 10.1002/marc.202000683] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2020] [Revised: 12/08/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
The electron-deficient ester group substitution in the sidechain of the commonly used electron-withdrawing quinoxaline (Qx) unit is seldom studied, while ester-substituted Qx units possess easy syntheses and facile modulation of the polymer solubility, and the enhanced electron-withdrawing property of ester substituted Qx unit can theoretically broaden the optical absorption of the resulting polymers and improve the open circuit voltage in the corresponding organic solar cells (OSCs). In this work, a novel ester-substituted Qx-based narrow bandgap polymer (NBG) donor material PBDTT-EFQx, which exhibits an absorption edge of 790 nm (bandgap < 1.6 eV), is designed and synthesized. Results show that the OSCs composed of PBDTT-EFQx and PC71 BM present the highest power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 6.8%, compared to PCEs of 5.0% for PBDTT-EFQx:ITIC based devices and 4.1% for PBDTT-EFQx:N2200 based devices, respectively. Characterizations and analyses indicate that the PC71 BM-based OSCs have well-matched energy levels, better complementary light absorption, the highest and most balanced carrier mobilities, as well as the lowest degree of recombination losses, and therefore, leading to the highest PCE among the three types of OSCs. This work reveals that the ester-substituted quinoxaline unit is one of the potential building blocks for NBG polymer donors.

Abstract
Organic conjugated materials have shown attractive applications due to their good optoelectronic
properties, which enable them solution processing techniques in organic optoelectronic devices.
Many conjugated materials have been investigated in polymer solar cells and organic field-effect transistors.
Among those conjugated materials, Benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene (BDT) is one of the most
employed fused-ring building groups for the synthesis of conjugated materials. The symmetric and planar
conjugated structure, tight and regular stacking of BDT can be expected to exhibit the excellent carrier
transfer for optoelectronics. In this review, we summarize the recent progress of BDT-based conjugated
polymers in optoelectronic devices. BDT-based conjugated materials are classified into onedimensional
(1D) and two-dimensional (2D) BDT-based conjugated polymers. Firstly, we introduce the
fundamental information of BDT-based conjugated materials and their application in optoelectronic devices.
Secondly, the design and synthesis of alkyl, alkoxy and aryl-substituted BDT-based conjugated
polymers are discussed, which enables the construction of one-dimensional and two-dimensional BDTbased
conjugated system. In the third part, the structure modification, energy level tuning and morphology
control and their influences on optoelectronic properties are discussed in detail to reveal the structure-
property relationship. Overall, we hope this review can be a good reference for the molecular design
of BDT-based semiconductor materials in optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Main chain donor and side chain acceptor (D-s-A) copolymers are an important branch of the D-A copolymer family. However, the development of D-s-A copolymers significantly falls behind the alternative D-A copolymers, especially for organic solar cells, because a breakthrough in device performance is not yet obtained with a reported power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 2%-4%. Herein, a newly developed D-s-A copolymer PDRCNBDT, bearing 2-(1, 1-dicyanomethylene) rhodanine pendant group as the donor material, delivers a high PCE of 5.3% for nonfullerene solar cells. To the best of our knowledge, this is the best value reported for D-s-A copolymers to date. The improved PCE is observed to be associated with a very small energy loss (Eloss ) of 0.57 eV, accompanied by a high open-circuit voltage (Voc ) of 1.015 eV. It is important to note that this efficient D-s-A copolymer is employed in organic solar cells (OSCs), free of additive and annealing treatments.

Abstract
A series of novel p-type conjugated copolymers, PTTVBDT, PTTVBDT-TPD, and PTTVBDT-DPP, cooperating benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene (BDT) and terthiophene-vinylene (TTV) units with/without thieno[3,4-c]pyrrole-4,6-dione (TPD) or pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,4-dione (DPP) via Stille polymerization were synthesized and characterized. Copolymer PTTVBDT shows a low-lying HOMO energy level and ordered molecular-packing behavior. Furthermore, two terpolymers, PTTVBDT-TPD and PTTVBDT-DPP, display stronger absorption ability, alower-lying HOMO energy level, and preferred molecular orientation, due to the replacement TTV-monomer units with electron-deficient groups. Furthermore, bulk-heterojunction organic solar cells were fabricated using blends of the PTTVBDT-TPD, and PC61BM gave the best power conversion efficiency of 5.01% under the illumination of AM 1.5G, 100 mW·cm−2; the short circuit current (Jsc) was 11.65 mA·cm−2 which displayed a 43.8% improvement in comparison with the PTTVBDT/PC61BM device. These results demonstrate a valid strategy combining the two-dimensional molecular structure with random copolymerization strikes promising conjugated polymers to achieve highly efficient organic photovoltaics.
